Roaring Success at ZSL Whipsnade Zoo

We have extended our partnership with ZSL Whipsnade Zoo for the continued delivery of general cleaning services to their expansive site located in Bedfordshire.Our original contract started November 2011 and we are pleased to have extended our partnership for a further three years. The Zoo is owned by the Zoological Society of London (ZSL); a charity devoted to the worldwide conservation of animals and their habitats. ZSL also owns London Zoo in Regent’s Park.

Our service delivery includes cleaning and periodic deep cleaning, and additional ad hoc cleaning. As part of our contract improvement process, we will be introducing two electric vehicles to the contract as a way of reducing emissions, which will have a significant impact. The vans, as well as all staff ID badges and uniforms, will be dual-branded with both Churchill and ZSL Whipsnade Zoo designs. We are also implementing a three-level staffing structure to correspond with seasonal patterns, with increased levels in place during the summer months.

Rufus Fidgeon, Operations Director for the contract says: “We are delighted to renew our contract and are pleased to be able to deliver a solution which aligns with ZSL Whipsnade Zoo’s operational needs and sustainability goals.”
